I'm running into a similar problem with my XIncludeFilter. How do I get a
reference to the sitemap's parser (so I don't hard code xerces in)? If
Filters or SitemapComponents had access to the ComponentManager object,
I'd be set, but they don't. Would it be better to add a
setComponentManager method to Filter, add it to SitemapComponent, add it
as a fifth argument to the SitemapComponent setup method, or something
else entirely?

For your problem, I'd reckon that ComponentManager oughta be enhanced with
a

Enumeration getComponentNames()

method.
